Each promotional communication may offer you choices about receiving additional messages. Receipt of such communications depends on FantasySpin having certain contact information from you.

How We Share Your Information

We may disclose or publish aggregated information (information about you and other players collectively that is not intended to specifically identify you)—for example, players between the ages of 21 and 25 who live Dallas—and other non-personal information about our players for purposes such as industry analysis, demographic profiling, marketing, analytics, advertising, and other purposes. In addition, we may share your information (which may include personal information) with third parties (in other words, parties other than FantasySpin) or allow third parties to collect this information from our Services in the following circumstances:

1. Your Consent

   With your consent, we may share your information with third parties or allow them to collect your information from our Services in some ways not specifically described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Friends and Other FantasySpin Players

   The Services support and often encourages you to interact with other players. In most FantasySpin games, if you play through a social network or register through a social network (for example, Facebook Connect), your social network friends will see your name, profile photo and descriptions of your game activity. Similarly, in many FantasySpin games, other players, regardless of whether they are your social network friends or not, will be able to see descriptions of your game activity (including the identification of any FantasySpin games you have played), communicate with you within our Services, and view your game profile, which may include your name or a "game name" and your profile photo. In certain cases, your profile photo can reveal your social network ID or FantasySpin player ID, and access to a social network ID or FantasySpin player ID may allow others to view the public information associated with your related social network profile or FantasySpin account. Other players may also be able to send you game requests or even friend requests through the related social network's or FantasySpin's communication channels.

3. Third-Party Advertising Including Tailored Advertising and Analytics

   We have advertising on our Services so we can continue to offer many of our Services for free.

   When advertisers or ad networks place ads in our Services, they may collect or we may share information, including the following, from within our Services:

   
   
   • performance data (like the number of clicks on an advertisement);
   • aggregated and/or de-identified information about you and other players collectively that is not intended to specifically identify you (like players between the ages of 21 and 25 who live Dallas Texas);
   • certain technical information (for example, IP addresses, non-persistent device identifiers such as IDFAs, and de-identified persistent device identifiers such as a hashed Android ID);
   • your social network ID;
   • and other contextual data about your game play (for example, your level and session length).
   
   

   The information may be used for purposes that include the following:

   
   
   • to measure how effective ads are, to offer you targeted advertising in order to personalize your experience by showing you advertisements for products and services that are more likely to appeal to you (a practice known as behavioral advertising); and/or
   • to undertake web analytics (like Google Analytics which is used to analyze traffic and other player activity to improve your experience).
   
   

   Advertisers or ad networks may collect this information through the use of tracking technologies like browser cookies and web beacons, and they may use a single tracking technology or multiple tracking technologies at the same time.

   Please note, after clicking on a third party advertisement, you may no longer be on a site hosted by FantasySpin or the social network through which you are playing FantasySpin's games. Please note that the third-party’s privacy policy may also apply to its use of your information. FantasySpin is not responsible for the practices used by the third party. In addition, by using our Services, you acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for and do not have control over any third party in this respect.

   We may enter into agreements with companies that refer users to our Services via hyperlinks available on the referring party’s website.

   • to satisfy any laws or regulations that apply;
   • where we believe in our sole discretion that the Service is being used in committing a crime, including to report such criminal activity or to share information with other companies and organizations for the purposes of fraud protection, credit risk reduction, and other security precautions;

   We will share your information with third-party companies to perform services on our behalf, like processing and administering payments, rewards and sweepstakes, analyzing data, optimizing game play, email delivery, hosting services, customer service and to help us in our marketing efforts, including managing and delivering contextual and tailored advertisements.
